This week kicked off with some big news coming out of San Diego, who announced they were parting ways with head coach Casey Stoney. Lianna and Vienna are left wondering, was this the best decision for the club? This week the USWNT also released their 18-player Olympic roster. Since Lianna and Vienna didn’t know it yet, they give their final wildcard predictions for the first international tournament of the Emma Hayes era. 

Lianna and Vienna are too excited for this weeks Pride on the Pitch highlight, Kelley O’Hara. Kelley is one of their all time favorite players, and she has done so much for the game both on and off the pitch. 

This past week of games were some wild ones. Most notably was Orlando’s 6-0 win over the Utah Royals, solidifying themselves as one of the 2024 powerhouse teams. We fear for Utah. We also saw Meredith Speck score her first goal 364 days after tearing her ACL. Some might call that Speck-tacular! 

For the upcoming weekend of matches, Lianna is felling most nervous for the Courage @ Spirit match, where Ashley Sanchez will be returning to Audi Field for the first time since her shocking trade. Let the Ashley Sanchez revenge tour continue! 

Live you best life Big Game Baes <3
